According to "The Shovel", former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has made a one-off donation to his book sales figures, buying 45,000 copies – or $1.75 million worth – of his autobiography "A Bigger Picture."
Mr Turnbull said the $1.75 million investment was his and Lucy’s way of giving back. “I’ve done pretty well in life, so it’s part of my duty to give back. And if that means buying the entire stock of a book that’s been released in the middle of a global pandemic, then so be it”. The investment will yield him $1 million in royalties.
The former PM said the 45,000 books will be housed in a separate wing of his house. He intends to read each copy over the coming months.
"A Bigger Picture" retails for $39.95 in ALDI's toilet paper aisle, or $0.00 if you have a mate in Scott Morrison’s office - click here.
